Nature can be your skin’s best friend, getting rid of the toxins that come from manmade foods and products. With this in mind, you can’t always let your skin sit on its own and expect it to magically stay clear. Sometimes you have to add an extra dose of the wonders your environment already provides for you. Here are some ways Mother Nature may lead to the clear complexion you’ve wanted for a while now.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is a plant that contains an enormous amount of healing power for the skin. You can use it to treat sunburns, scratches, scars, and much more. There are many ways to get the benefits from this plant as well. You could drink Aloe juice, apply Aloe ointment, or use direct Aloe extract from plant leaves. Whatever the case may be, expect clear skin to be the result.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are considered a vegetable, but they are actually classified as a fruit. The acid and antioxidants in this fruit are great for the skin, and they don’t take much to benefit from. All you have to do is squeeze some fresh tomato juice into a bowl. Then dip a cotton ball in it and apply the juice to your face. Let it sit for 20 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Your face may small like salad after that, but it will feel better after a few sessions.

Diamonds

Diamonds are used in a lot of microdermabrasion devices, and they are great for scraping off dead skin. The devices themselves may not be all that natural, but the stones used to make them work are. Diamond tipped microderm kits are always going to lead to the smoothest skin possible, so you need to think about using them instead of other products on the market. You could feel explosively exfoliated in no time.

Water

Water is necessary for just about every bodily function, from your digestive system to your weight and beyond. By drinking water on a regular basis, you will keep your skin plump and hydrated. This will create a natural glow on your body that cannot be matched by nay amount of makeup in the world.

As long as you maintain a healthy diet and use natural skincare products, you should be able to keep your skin looking great. Hopefully the tips above have provided you with inspiration for the future.
